I am very particular about the quality of care that I receive. Dr. Prasad, and his team more than met my expectations. Indeed they exceeded them significantly. From the moment I entered the office I was greeted warmly to the tests and when necessary, duplicate tests when to ensure a perfect match the process went seamlessly. Dr. Prasad, showed considerable care and consideration, as did the rest of his staff. Dr. Prasad, and the staff answered my many questions and addressed any concerns I had in clear terms, and I never felt rushed when needing more information. I highly recommend this practice.

I cannot recommend Dr. Lim highly enough!!! 17 thumbs up!!!…read more She is a miracle worker. I was the biggest scaredy cat about getting my cataract surgery done. I have been wearing glasses since the third grade and I am extremely near-sighted. One of my biggest fears is losing my sight. Dr. Lim made me feel extremely confident about getting the surgery. She explained the surgery in detail and she offered excellent advice about the right type of cataract lenses for me. The surgery itself was extremely quick and painless. I felt like I was at a Laserium show at a planetarium and not in an operating room. There are a number of follow-up appointments scheduled for the day and week after surgery. Both Dr. Chan and Dr. Zhang were caring, knowledgeable, and friendly at these follow-up appointments. The Walnut Creek office staff is also wonderful, friendly, and efficient. Being the nervous Nelly that I am, I did call them more than a few times with my worries. I am now seeing 20/15 out of my distance eye. I can read 4 point type out of my reading eye. I feel I should be on a lecture tour, wearing a Super Hero cape to match my new bionic eyes, touting the wonders of cataract surgery with Dr. Lim. The only regret I have is enduring blurry and dimming vision for a year because I put off my cataract surgery because I was so scared.

She is a one in a million genius eye surgeon with a manner so unassuming and a hand that is so calm and self assured, you pray that she is there whenever you go under the knife. Period! Her specialty is corneal implants. She loves what she does and she loves to give the miracle of perfect sight to her patients. I'm 77 now and one day after the surgeries my eyes tested 20/20 & 20/24. Three year later they still test the same. I'm so grateful to her! It is not surprising to me that she worked with Dr Vastine, the Errol Flynn of eye surgeons. And she was referred to me by Dr Litwin, one of the best. Don't even think about it. Get on her waiting list today.

Whoever the lady is who works with the glasses is ridiculous l. I came in for a contact exam and…read morethey did not do anything with my contacts. They gave me a prescription for glasses, they wouldn't finish my visit because they were trying to overcharge me as well as not use my insurance. I had a 150 allowance to use for my fitting and contacts and my co pay was 15$ but somehow they were trying to charge me 75$ to 143$ for a visit when I wasn't even going to buy contacts from them. I also tried to buy contacts from another place and they denied my prescription. DO NOT go here. It was the worst experience I've ever had at the eye doctor.

Their voicemail says office hours are Monday - Friday 8:30 - 5:30 PM, but that is a lie. I called…read morethe office at 1:00 PM on a Friday, and the office was closed. I called the office again on a Tuesday morning letting them know I will be stopping by later that day at around 4:30 - 5:00 PM to pick up my glasses. Left work early and arrived at the office at 4:50 PM and the office was closed... Voicemail still saying Monday - Friday 8:30 - 5:30 PM... Who runs a business like this?? You would think a doctor's office would be run more professionally, but nope. My advice is to go somewhere else, anywhere else other than this joke of an office.

Unprofessional and Disrespectful of Patients' Time…read more My mother's appointment was scheduled for 1:20pm, yet we were kept waiting 51 minutes before being seen. There were no updates, no explanation, and no apology from the staff or the physician. When I mentioned--calmly--that my mother's time should be respected and that appointments should begin reasonably close to their scheduled time, Dr Gilbert replied: "Well, sometimes it works that way and sometimes it doesn't." That statement, paired with a complete lack of acknowledgment for the delay, was unacceptable. It reflected a dismissive attitude toward patient time and basic professionalism. I remained polite and civil throughout the interaction, but left with the impression that punctuality and patient communication are simply not valued here. If you expect respect, accountability, or even a simple apology for excessive wait times, I would advise seeking care elsewhere.

I've been sitting on this for a while and finally decided to write a review in hopes it will…read moreprotect at least one future patient from the trauma I experienced after surgery with Dr. Gilbert. Dr. Gilbert performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes. After my first eye was done, I complained of severe blurred vision. He told me it was normal and insisted that we move forward on the second surgery. Unbeknownst to me, he caused permanent damage to my corneas, and at the age of 48, I can no longer see properly. I have to wear hard contact lenses for the rest of my life to see a bit better and to stop further deterioration, unless I want to do a cornea transplant. He told me that the worst case scenario post surgery would be that I maybe would need reading glasses and might have a bit of halos around lights at night. When he realized that I was not healing properly, he promised me that he would stick with me and help me find solutions. I never heard from him again. I worked with the ophthalmologist who referred me, different eye specialists, had to have an MRI, and finally met with a skilled doctor who was able to diagnose me and confirm that based on my records it is obvious that this damage happened during surgery. I also was told by his receptionist when I asked for medical records that I would have to come back to get them later because he likes to have the opportunity to go over them and change them before releasing them to the patient.

I needed this appointment ASAP since my eyesight was so bad and deteriorating. I had an appointment yesterday, January 2, 2025, where I met with Dr. Geoffrey Rodriguez and his assistant for my eye exam. Both were truly amazing and provided good care. However, I will mention that the assistant forgot to put on my form that she dilated my eyes. When I went to check out, they wanted me to come back in six months for eye dilation, I told her I already received it, but she said no I did not because it was not on my form. The receptionist went to talk to the assistant to confirm that it was dilated! Watch out for this if you get your eyes dilated here! I want to give special recognition to Yarely Ledesma, one of the front desk, receptionist. She went above and beyond with her exceptional patience, care, attentiveness, and hard work. She promptly answered all my emails and tirelessly handled my requests, including sending faxes to help me secure an appointment with the Neuro-Ophthalmology team at Stanford Byers Eye Institute. Thank you, Yarely, for your dedication and all the effort you put in to make this happen. I truly appreciate everything you've done for me!

Bay Retina Center has been treating me for the past six months. I had to go for a follow up check up today. Wow I was super impressed. They are taking utmost precautions and following very strict protocols for their patients' safety. There is very very very limited close contact. The outside doors are propped open, and there was no one in the waiting room. Every employee/doctor is careful. You are required to wear a mask in order to be admitted. They take your temperature upon arrival and limit talking . Dr. Lee only talks when he's 6 feet apart from the patient. They constantly sanitize the examination rooms and are being ultra cautious. I haven't felt that safe in a long time. If you are a patient here do not delay seeing them for important follow ups. You will be well taken care of in super sanitized surroundings!
